Charles Swinburn, RailAmerica's Chief Executive Officer, said, �We are pleased with our results this quarter. Despite the declines in our carloads, caused in significant part by the slowdown in the housing market, which resulted in a 12% decline in our lumber carloads compared to the third quarter of 2005, and the continued work stoppage at a paper facility in Nova Scotia, coupled with the expense of a single personal injury during the quarter, we continued to improve our operating results. Production recommenced in October at the paper facility in Nova Scotia and we expect carloads from this facility to begin to return to normal levels during the fourth quarter. In addition, we have made significant progress at our Ohio railroad, which saw its revenue increase 17% and its operating loss decline 78% from the second quarter.� Michael Howe, RailAmerica's Chief Financial Officer, said, "We continue to make progress on our Process Improvement Project. We have now completed our implementation planning and will commence implementation of our plan in the fourth quarter. We have already begun to realize savings through our staff reductions in June and our strategic sourcing initiatives. In addition, we have now completed the first year of operations of the four railroads purchased from Alcoa. The operating results of those railroads have exceeded our financial and cash flow targets since we acquired them on September 30, 2005.� RailAmerica, Inc.

Production recommenced in October at the paper facility in Nova Scotia and we expect carloads from this facility to begin to return to normal levels during the fourth quarter. In addition, we have made significant progress at our Ohio railroad, which saw its revenue increase 17% and its operating loss decline 78% from the second quarter." Michael Howe, RailAmerica's Chief Financial Officer, said, "We continue to make progress on our Process Improvement Project. We have now completed our implementation planning and will commence implementation of our plan in the fourth quarter. We have already begun to realize savings through our staff reductions in June and our strategic sourcing initiatives. In addition, we have now completed the first year of operations of the four railroads purchased from Alcoa. The operating results of those railroads have exceeded our financial and cash flow targets since we acquired them on September 30, 2005." RailAmerica, Inc.
